cursorrules

Rules for Cursor when working with RagCode MCP, a server that searches local source code by meaning. They require searching the indexed code first and checking function implementations directly.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them to search code, inspect functions, identify the correct workspace, index missing code, and verify how the project is structured or used.
Why use it?
They reduce incorrect answers caused by assumptions about the codebase and provide a fallback when the workspace has not yet been indexed.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

cursorrules scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Cursor AI Rules - RagCode MCP

⚖️ The Golden Rule

For any information about the codebase (structure, logic, or usage), you MUST use RagCode MCP tools. Never guess code details from memory; always search the local index first using search_code or get_function_details.

Guidelines

  1. Context First: Always call search_code when starting a task to see where relevant logic exists.
  2. Actual Code: Use get_function_details to read the implementation of a function instead of assuming what it does.
  3. Workspace Detection: Always provide the current file_path to the tools so they can identify the correct project/workspace.
  4. No Guesswork: If you don't find something, index the workspace using index_workspace and search again.
Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
